Abstract Endowing materials with specific functions that are not readily available is always of great importance, but extremely challenging. Co 4 N, its beneficial metallic characteristics, has been proved to be highly active for the oxidation water, while it notoriously poor catalyzing hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), because unfavorable d‐band energy level. Herein, we successfully endow N prominent HER catalytic capability by tailoring positions center through transition‐metal doping....
Metal sulfides for hydrogen evolution catalysis typically suffer from unfavorable desorption properties due to the strong interaction between adsorbed H and intensely electronegative sulfur. Here, we demonstrate a general strategy improve of metal by modulating surface electron densities. The N modulated NiCo
Abstract Molybdenum disulfide is naturally inert for alkaline hydrogen evolution catalysis, due to its unfavorable water adsorption and dissociation feature originated from the unsuitable orbital orientation. Herein, we successfully endow molybdenum with exceptional capability by carbon-induced modulation.
